This car is fresh out of the barn and there is no reserve on the auction. This car is a little rough, but I have seen far worse cars restored to pristine condition and this one has some good bones for a resto or street rod project. It has no motor but is otherwise pretty complete. It would be a great base to build a project car on the cheap.....drop in a used motor, do some basic maintenance, throw on a driveway primer job and you have your own Gas Monkey/Hot Rod Magazine Road Kill adventure in the making for very little cost. If you are restoring a car like this, it would be a great car to pick the parts you need for your restoration and sell off the rest and break even or perhaps make a little extra to fund your restoration. Priced to sell! Finish -- Grade D-: Very weathered, appears it may have been re-painted since new. Body -- Grade C-: Body has some great sheet metal; doors, trunk lid, hood and front fenders are very solid and rust free. Please view photos closely. Drivers quarter, front floorboards and trunk have heavy rust Trim Code info: Body Color Trim Date DSO Axle Trans63A P 76 04B 57 1 4 Frame -- Grade B-: Some scale but solid with no rust or damage. Frame is straight and never damaged in an accident. Bumpers - Grade C-: Bumpers are straight originals with patina, great to re-chrome or for driver quality. Bright work – Grade B : All trim is on the car. Other then some some very light patina is all original and will clean up well, no dents or pings easy to restore to like new luster. Glass Grade B+ : All original glass in very good condition. All rubber and fuzzies are original and will need replacement. Interior D- : It has been disassembled, unsure why, however appears complete other them missing rear bottom seat cushions, some water and rodent damage Wheels Grade OK : Factory correct steel wheels 14 X 6 missing factory original hubcaps Tires Grade C : Early bias ply tires, weather checking, excellent tread, holds air, rolls down the road smooth, no idea on the age, will need to be replaced due to age. Suspension Grade OK: Visual check, is complete with no signs of damage. Exhaust Grade NOT OK: No exhaust system whatsoever.

Brakes Grade E: Power Brakes with drums all around. Missing power booster and master cylinder Engine Grade E: Missing engine but do have the radiator, and carb. Summary: I see this as a great car for parts for your restoration, if you are restoring a car this would be a great car to pick the parts you need from and sell off the rest and break even or even make a little extra to fund your restoration. However, I have seen far worse restored, and this could be a great base for a restoration/hot rod project due it being fairly complete and really cheap. Drop an engine in this old girl, maybe primer it up for now, and have a fun cruiser like the guys in Hot Rod Magazine do on the popular Roadkill series. Could be a fun little project on the cheap. Car also comes with two great resource books, The Thunderbird Restoration Guide by William Wonder and the Thunderbird Chronicles Coffee Table book. I have tried my best to represent this vehicle as honestly and completely as possible, however there are no warranties given or implied and this vehicle is sold as is. Shipping is the responsibility of the Buyer, however may I suggest two great local shippers that will help you get your car from Traverse City to anywhere in the US including to international shipping ports for international buyers.
